The way schranz is going this is dope.

Thats not too shabby, what release is this?

[Si the Sigh]

why is it i only hear about techno going down in sales of vinyl.......dnb, house, trance, and hardcore seem to be doing ok no?

I always wonder the same thing.

My mate owns a record shop. UK Hardcore out sells every techno release by 20 to 1 at the absolute least.

D&B vinyl sales are still high. Hardtrance & Hardstyle sales are still reasonable, as are sales of house and breaks, abet on a smaller scale in the case of this shop.

You can't tell me that MP3's are selling more than vinyl. I really can't believe that at all.

[TechMouse]

Sam, what track is that?

It's Arkus P.

(The mp3 has id3 tags...)

[Jay Pace]

D&B vinyl sales are still high

yeah, i've heard about alot of hardcore and dnb labels still selling nice amounts of vinyl.......although i dont think hardcore and dnb are big in the mp3 market maybe?

No, people just aren`t buying techno.

There you go.

Nail on the head.

Well done Steve.

This whole vinyl is on it's way out is no where near as bad as people in the techno scene think, as other genres are doing fine. Even MP3 sales in techno are seriously, seriously low compaired to say the hardcore scene. Thats a fact.

I'd say the problem with sales lies with the music personally.

Ah way, back on topic...

Schranz...

*meh!*

damn!! i knew i should have stayed withn the hardcore scene...white gloves, whistles and horns and mass record sales!!

[eyeswithoutaface]

There are very specific reasons within each genre as for why sales are how they are. Comparing UK Hardcore sales with Techno sales is pretty pointless, as the 2 core fanbases are vastly different. Uk Hardcore caters for, on the whole, your typical british chav, who want the fastest, most "aving it" music they can to soundtrack their night of debauchery. I bet you any money that if you compared the amount of people at Hardcore events now who actually dj themselves with the same criteria ten or even 5 years ago and youl notice a difference. Sales have dropped in EVERY genre over the past 5 - 10 years, there's no denying that. Sales in all genres will have their peaks and troughs but eventually it all levels out.

Hardcore might be outselling techno in your mates shop by 20 to 1 Si, but go to a shop over in Berlin, and you can bet your life they wont even stock hardcore records. Sales are more regional now than ever. I dont even have a label and i know this much.

thats completely right. we have loads of shops for techno here and only very few for hardcore. even dnb is not that much represented. some of the bigger shops like hard wax have a dnb section but compared to the amount of techno they stock it is at most 1/5. and special dnb shops are also quite rare.

[eyeswithoutaface]

yep, exactly. You dont get the best demographic of one scene by comparing 2 totally different scenes in terms of economics, commercial viability etc etc.

It's Arkus P.

Arkus P Zweites Mal
